Blood Flows Like Chicken Gravy

Yeah, I know I posted a Post Mortem 7" just the other day but I was getting some more records together and found this gem. Not only is the cover hilarious (love the Gerber Baby) but the album is a perfect acid-trip slab of Boston metal. "Reconciliation Of The Fish" is easily the best song although "Burning Sinister Turnip" is almost just as good. What the fuck was (sadly R.I.P.) singer John McCarthy on when he wrote those lyrics? Incredible. I ended up getting their full-length Festival Of Fun a couple years ago but it didn't do all that for me - this is really the band at their best.

Boston Death Metal?

I'll admit, I initially only got this 7" because Seth Putnam (of A.C. fame you retard!) sang vocals on it. What a nice surprise once it hit the turntable because it fucking kills! Most of the "metal" webpage archives classify Boston's Post Mortem as "death metal" but I hardly agree - side A's "Noodles In My Bile..." is down-and-out sludgey goodness. Putnam's wailing vocals contrast perfectly with the downtuned chugga-chugga guitar. Side B's "Anal Drip" is a little bit more standard thrash fare but still worthwhile. Best $2 I ever spent.
